"The hotel is beautiful. It has the most beautiful views. The staff was very professional. Three of them , Franklin, Glen and Carlos very very professional and helpful. My only complaint is that by the time I did the reservation , the two restaurants were working , but when we get there the Pampas was closed so that’s not fear. In my opinion The hotel must inform us about this. ."

"We loved our stay at the beachfront hotel! The staff was very nice and it was a perfect location to walk to downtown Tamarindo when it was nice weather, or just a short drive. There were a lot of ants in our room, but that is probably just the norm. We wish the paddle boards and surfboards were a little bit better kept, as there was only one paddle for the paddle boards, and it broke within a few minutes of using it. A few of the surfboards definitely needed some maintenance as well. The breakfast every morning was very nice, and we would definitely stay here again!"
